Manufacturers Urged to Address Hidden Gauge Issues
Manufacturers are being reminded of the hidden costs associated with worn gauges, which often go unnoticed until they fail calibration. These gauges can subtly impact productivity and quality in manufacturing processes, leading to problems like dimensional shifts and increased scrap. Gauges play a crucial role in ensuring precision and quality in manufacturing. Like any tool, they wear out over time. A worn gauge may lead to minor dimensional inconsistencies resulting in borderline parts, excessive rework, or even a rise in scrap rates. Moreover, these inaccuracies can often result in false rejects that hinder production speed and lead to inconsistent results
